CURRENT MISSION

Get to 200 countries before I die. I'm up to 67 and that's only a quarter! How crazy is that!

ABOUT ME

My friend once said to me that the best thing about me was that was able to see the happy in whatever we do. I love stretching out and reading a book and much as I love climbing a mountain. Food is a big passion, I don't get people who don't eat and I'm pretty active. I have to be to balance out the food!!. Throw me in anywhere and I'll make myself comfortable. I speak to anyone and everyone.

PHILOSOPHY

See, try and do everything once as long as it doesn't hurt or disrespect anyone. Courage is fear walking. It's ok to be scared of everything as long as it doesn't stop you from doing anything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

First one was in Marseille and it was brilliant! Done Panama City and Dominican Republic. Also I've had a lot of experience in respecting peoples generosity when I've been on the road. I've travelled alone by myself a lot and people have been really kind to me and I know the importance of respect and returning the favour. Love to entertain and show people where I'm living at that time

Interests

I love to travel and I love to try everything. Life's too short and there's so much to do and see! I it's reckon OK to be afraid of everything as long as it doesn't stop you from doing anything. There's no such thing as too nerdy or too cool. It's all just there to be done and tried. I love food as a way to experience so much of what a country has to offer and, of course, a good track to run.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

ONE!! CAN'T PICK ONE ! Crossing the border on foot into Morocco and travelling across the desert, living in Japan and trying to go to school there, going back to university at the age of 30 and in France ! seeing the midnight sun at he top of Finland or drinking Budweiser with uni students in Buffalo. The locals in Vanuatu were amazing and taught me a great view on life too. The beauty and romance of France is something I just love :) Managing a hostel in the jungles of Costa Rica or working In a cigar bar in the Dominican Republic :) love it all!

Teach, Learn, Share

What can I teach? I can listen. I can learn. I can inspire and god can I laugh :) I guess I can talk about my trips around the world and for anyone wanting to travel I have a lot of tips.
